A new theory by scholars sustains that the innate talent or skills - call them as you wanna. To make it more simple think about Maradona - can be quantified.

After that, we are able to measure talent into chunks, in pieces, or sets of specific skills.

Mozart, according to this new theory, is NOT the result of a God's gift but the result of the insane, massive, persistent practice he did because his father was always there to push further.

Fun fact: in reality, we do know that is true someone who has a huge talent needs also consistent training to be the best. Scientists say that everything boils down to almost a perfect split 50/50 - talent/training

I hope now is more clear
